Hornady LeveRevolution .45-70 Government 250 gr MonoFlex (Lead-Free) 2025 FPS – 20 Rounds is a high-performance lever-action hunting load built for tubular magazine safety, reliable expansion, and serious stopping power on medium game.
The .45-70 Government is legendary for hard-hitting performance, and Hornady’s LeveRevolution line brings modern ballistic innovation to one of America’s most trusted hunting cartridges. Traditional lever-action rifles have long been limited to flat-nose bullets for tubular magazine safety—but Hornady’s Flex Tip® design changes the game by allowing a more aerodynamic bullet profile without the risk of primer ignition in tube-fed firearms.

This load features a 250-grain MonoFlex® bullet that’s lead-free, making it an environmentally responsible option while still delivering strong terminal performance. At 2,025 feet per second with 2,276 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, it offers excellent power, practical trajectory improvement, and dependable performance across a range of hunting conditions. MonoFlex® construction is designed for controlled expansion and strong weight retention, helping provide clean, humane results on medium game.

Whether you’re hunting with a classic Marlin or Henry lever gun, or any rifle chambered in .45-70 Government, Hornady LeveRevolution provides the blend of tradition and modern performance that lever-action hunters appreciate—especially when you want more reach and consistent results.

There is something deeply American about a lever-action rifle and a box of .45-70 resting on a worn wooden bench. It brings to mind a time when craftsmanship mattered, rifles were trusted tools, and the outdoors was not just a pastime, but a way of life. That is the spirit behind this gallery image. With the lever gun in the background, the weathered wood, and the warm rustic setting, this photo was designed to honor the heritage of the American hunter and the enduring legacy of classic big-bore rifle cartridges.

Built for shooters who appreciate the proven strength and authority of the .45-70 platform, LEVERevolution has become well known for helping bring enhanced performance to traditional lever-action cartridges. It represents a meeting point between old-school rifle heritage and modern ammunition design. In this image, the story is simple: a respected American cartridge, a legendary style of rifle, and the kind of timeless setting that reminds us why these classics still matter today.
